Refill Capacities
Refer to this Operation and Maintenance Manual,
“Fluid Recommendations” for information about the
fluids which are acceptable for this engine.
Lubricant Refill Capacities
The refill capacities for the engine crankcase reflect
the approximate capacity of the crankcase or sump
plus standard oil filters. Auxiliary oil filter systems will
require more oil. Refer to the Original Equipment
Manufacturer (OEM) specifications for the capacity of
the auxiliary oil filter.

These values are approximate capacities for the crankcase oil
sump which include the standard oil filters that are installed at
the factory. Engines with auxiliary oil filters will require more oil.
Refer to the OEM specifications for the capacity of the auxiliary
oil filter.
Coolant Refill Capacities
To maintain the cooling system, the total cooling
system capacity must be known. The capacity of the
total cooling system will vary. The capacity will
depend on the size of the radiator (capacity). Table 4
should be completed by the customer for the
maintenance of the cooling system.

Fluid Recommendations
(Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF))
General Information
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) is a liquid that is injected
into the aftertreatment system before Selective
Catalytic Reduction (SCR). This system of injecting
the DEF into the exhaust will reactor in the SCR
system.
In engines equipped with SCR emissions reduction
system, DEF is injected in controlled amounts into
the engine exhaust stream. At the elevated exhaust
temperature, urea in DEF is converted to ammonia.
The ammonia chemically reacts with NOx in diesel
exhaust in the presence of the SCR catalyst. The
reaction converts NOx into harmless nitrogen (N2)
and water (H2O).
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) is also known under
other names including Aqueous Urea Solution (AUS)
32,AdBlue, or generically referred to as urea.
NOTICE
Do not use agriculture grade urea solutions. Do
not use any fluids that do not meet “ISO 22241-1” Re-
quirements in SCR emissions reduction systems.
Use of these fluids can result in numerous problems
including damage to SCR equipment and a reduction
in NOx conversion efficiency.
DEF is a solution of solid urea that is dissolved in
demineralized water to produce a final concentration
of 32.5% urea. DEF concentration of 32.5% is
optimal for use in SCR systems. DEF solution of
32.5% urea has the lowest attainable freeze point of
−11.5° C (11.3° F). DEF concentrations that are
higher or lower than 32.5% have higher freeze
points. DEF dosing systems and “ISO 22241-1”
specifications are designed for a solution that is
approximately 32.5%.
Specification
DEF that is used in Perkins engines must meet the
ISO specification 22241-1 for quality. The ISO
specification 22241-1 requirements are met by many
brands of DEF, including those that carry the AdBlue
or API certification."
